Wichita Falls police arrest Maliah White in hit-and-run accident TX

HIT-AND-RUN INVESTIGATION NEEDED

Leaving the scene of a crash is a criminal offense, and data indicates that approximately 11 percent of all accidents involve a hit-and-run driver. In many situations, at-fault drivers attempt to evade responsibility by fleeing, but they often face charges once identified.

Candice Bond, an experienced accident attorney, highlighted the importance of a timely and independent investigation to safeguard the rights of victims.

“Having the necessary resources is critical in investigating hit-and-run cases and establishing negligence,” said Bond, Managing Partner of Bond Legal. “Factors such as roadway conditions, visibility of signage, and lighting must be carefully evaluated. These steps are essential to help injured victims pursue justice and obtain fair compensation.”

PERSONAL INJURY CLAIM

Following an investigation, the injured victim may have the right to file a personal injury lawsuit. Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal, explained that the impact of a serious injury can be overwhelming, affecting all areas of life, including family, employment, finances, and overall well-being.

“It is important for victims to seek legal representation when pursuing a personal injury claim so that an attorney can negotiate with insurance companies on their behalf,” Formica said.

“Insurance companies may attempt to settle claims quickly for less than their true value. An attorney can advocate strongly for victims to ensure they are treated fairly and receive appropriate compensation.”
